Does sound matter? When planning, designing and constructing our urban areas, we consider function, amenities and environment. But often we may miss an invisible, but important factor, the soundscape.

This walk will explore the soundscapes of two of Bristol's 'quiet spaces' - Temple Garden Park and St Stephen's Church. It's a chance to get outside and really listen to your surroundings.

Meeting location:

Meet in front of the ruined church in Temple Gardens
